Abstract

An electrical connector configured to control a compression force applied to a core is disclosed. The electrical connector includes a body having a tubular shape, a centerline extending along a longitudinal direction of the body, and an opening extending along the centerline from an outer surface of the body to the center cavity. The body includes a center cavity configured to receive and encase the core. The centerline defines a first portion and a second portion such that the first portion includes a bore hole configured to receive a bolt and the second portion includes a tap hole with a tapered threaded portion configured to receive a screw portion of the bolt. The tap hole is aligned with the bore hole so that the bolt may connect the bore hole and the tap hole to close the opening.
